Should Old Acquaintance be forgot,
and never thought upon;
The flames of Love extinguished,
and fully past and gone:
Is thy sweet Heart now grown so cold,
that loving Breast of thine;
That thou canst never once reflect
On old long syne.
.
The beautiful voice sounds like your baritone, though you seldom sang, posting this youtube to memorize the passing of an era.
.
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne?
for auld lang syne,
well tak a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
And surely yell be your pint-stowp!
and surely Ill be mine!
And well tak a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
and pud the gowans fine;
But weve wanderd mony a weary foot,
sin auld lang syne.
frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roard
sin auld lang syne.
and gies a hand o thine!
And well tak a right gude-willy waught,
for auld lang syne.
for auld lang syne,
well tak a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
And surely yell be your pint-stowp!
and surely Ill be mine!
And well tak a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

This excerpt was hardly about you, lassie N.S.. It tickled me into thinking of my mum. That was all.
Now your reply and perspectives triggered all my best admiration. I would love to "read" ahead about your advanced life plan.
Say what?! Somewhere, Someone wants to hear my "advanced" story? He must not have paid attention of the Title of this Littlezone blog!! It's called: Nothing-Special.
However, there's a reader, there has a story to be told.
One of my my Nothing Special Advanced story is: making a pot of coffee, sitting at my tiny front yard with a book, and having my Babydog wondering between the bushes to watch passing by neighbors, to guard his territory. This is nothing but a dream would never be happened after Babydog's passing away.
Because Nothing Special does believe her most recent reincarnation life had lived his younger life somewhere in Britan that she should travel to the homeland of that piece of time; may be she will learn something and understand the reason of why.
Another bubble of Nothing Special Advanced story is to pick up her abstract study, to continue her unreachable dream. How true to say it is an unreachable dream. No Don Quixote NS would be, that is why it is a bubble dream only.
The most regretful Nothing Special Advanced story is to drive to the tiping point at Nova Scotia with my Babydog sitting by my side. We planed the trip because Dog promised to stay beside me forever, no matter where to go... and, we thought Nova Scotia is the End of Land to connect to the Ocean, where it is a beginning of a New World... We could have never made the trip, first, because I could not afford such a long period of vacation time; then, later, Dog was quite sick to travel much longer hours for days. And at final moment, we could only take the trip as a bubble to image.
Enough Nothing Special Advanced stories?

At seeing it, you're the first person I thought to share with.
My mother’s been living alone for over ten years. She gets up at six every morning. She makes herself a coffee. She waters her plants. She listens to the news on the radio. She drinks her coffee. She has a quick wash. An hour later, at seven, her day is over. Two months ago a neighbour told her about your blog, and she asked me to buy her one of those thingummyjigs – by a thingummyjig she meant a computer. And since then, thanks to your trimmings, your ribbon bows, your tie-backs for curtains, she’s rediscovered the joys of life. So don’t tell me you don’t know any answers.”― Grégoire Delacourt
Thanks for sharing...
I think it has only 1/24 portion matches my life.
I get up at uncertain time in the morning, sometimes before 5 am, sometimes by 3 am, most of the times in between 3 and 5 am... rarely, but, it happens I wake up after 6am... what can I say? I like uncertainty!!Hey, I am a woman, I have the right to love variety.
Making coffee after jumping out of the bed is a routing to begin the day, I am not picky; doesn't matter how the coffee made and of what kind of flavor, just drink it because it may be good for liver and to prevent headache from coffee addiction (oh, how I hate my body rely on something daily.)
To me, the similarity stops at the 1st hour. I go to work after that; even at my retiring life, there has no similarity for the rest of the daily life, I image.
Years ago, I told my good friend M that I would work till the day I die... never thought it was her to be the person worked till the day of her life. Nowaday, think of what I will do when my retiring days arrives, often. Sometimes, I hardly can wait especially when the day is so tough. One thing is for sure, my retirement will not be sedated.

A soothing fine piece of art. Listening to the hmm went well with my later-afternoon coffee break and doubled the caffeine effect.
Amazing! A farewell to Whatever folk song can double your caffeine effect. You should play this song as the morning call, instead an alarm clock.
